Guardians won their home opener with a bases-loaded walk-off walk to break a scoreless tie in the 9th

To be fair, it was about 34° at first pitch with shadows from the light towers blanketing the infield between the batters' box and pitching mound, which always makes it a challenge to hit the ball.

White Sox and Guardians combined for 5 hits total, none for extra-bases. Chicago pitcher Mike Clevinger gave up a hit and 3 BBs in the 9th.

6 innings, 6 Ks, 1 BB, 2 hits.

But as I mentioned, he had those infield shadows working for him, same as the Cleveland starter.
